Real Betis midfielder Nabil Fekir upset with France snub: It hurt me

Real Betis midfielder Nabil Fekir admits he was frustrated missing Euro 2020 selection with France.

Impressive for Betis last season, Fekir was a surprise omission for France coach Didier Deschamps' final squad.

"It hurt me not to go to the Euro, but I have to keep working. I want to play for the France team again. I am ambitious and I intend to be with the best in the best competitions," said Fekir.

"Time passes very quickly, I start the third season with great enthusiasm.

"People know that I have quality, they always ask for a lot. I want to do my best for this great club and hopefully this year will be good for everyone."
